		Dextran (n = 19)	Lactated Ringer’s (n = 18)		P value
Intravenous fluids
Lactated Ringer’s	987 ± 614	691–1283	2883 ± 690	2540–3226

Platelets	92 ± 21	0–202	0 ± 0	0–0	0.10
Total fluids balance
Total fluid infusion	4157 ± 1779	3300–5014	4121 ± 1352	3450–4794	0.95
Total fluid lost	2638 ± 1491	1918–3356	2196 ± 1380	1509–2881	0.29
Fluid balance	1520 ± 668	1198–1842	1925 ± 696	1580–2272	0.03
Blood loss
Total blood loss	2339 ± 1470	1630–3048	1822 ± 1240	1160–2484	0.27

Fluid balance was calculated from the administered solutions, transfusion of blood products, urine output, and blood loss (suction and drainage) during anesthesia and in the recovery room. Blood products included packed red blood cells, fresh-frozen plasma (FFP), and platelets. Values are expressed as means with sd and 95 % confidence interval. P-values by univariate analysis
